Join us for a space adventure!

This weekend we’re celebrating all things space with an extra star-studded programme for everyone curious about the universe:

• Train like an astronaut – Take on our fun astronaut challenge and try training like a real astronaut.
• The Planet Wall – Learn more about gravity and the planets in our solar system. Would you be able to lift a litre of milk on the Sun?
• Space Robots – Solve fun missions using simple programming.
• Build for Space – Design and build a spacecraft using LEGO, 4D-Frame or large soft building blocks.
• Explore our interactive exhibitions.

Activities in our labs

In the Chemistry Lab: Can Saturn Float?
Could the planets in our solar system float on water—if there were an ocean large enough? And is there a difference between rocky planets and gas giants? Use various objects to compare the buoyancy of different planets in this chemistry lab about density. Can you make Potato-Saturn float?

In the Technology Lab: Space Escape
In this thrilling escape game, you are the crew of Apollo 13. The plan is to land on the Moon—but suddenly something goes wrong. Working together, you must solve problems to make it safely back to Earth before time runs out!

In the Makerspace: Paint the Northern Lights
What would your dream aurora look like? Let your imagination run free and paint your own version of the sky’s most magical light show!

Activities in our labs and Makerspace are led by our on-site guides. Places are limited, and during busy periods a ticket system is used. Tickets are collected outside each room 30 minutes before the activity starts.
